Absolute Spa at Fairmont Hotel Vancouver

I had an amazing experience at this spa! The staff was friendly and welcoming, and the services were top-notch. I left feeling relaxed and rejuvenated. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a little self-care.

Massage therapist Catherine K. is, in my opinion, the best in this city! She is so intuitive and effective in her treatment style. I have been seeing her for many years (I started seeing her at Century Plaza location until they closed). I would follow her anywhere as her massages completely heal me. Her pedicures are excellent too. For the overall experience at Hotel Vancouver, I really do miss the complimentary light spa lunch that used to be included and would suggest that the spa offers GF healthy options for those of us who cannot eat the bakery goods/snacks offered in the lounge. Thank you.

Pretty disappointing. I was hoping to really treat myself with an expensive pedicure as I have been twice before, many years ago. What I got was a rushed service. There was no peaceful music playing in the spa at all. The temperature in there was incredibly warm so I was sweating the whole time. My pedicurist spent the whole time talking when I had honestly just wanted to go there to have a nice chat with my friend. I didn’t need her piping in all her opinions and telling unnecessary stories. The esthetician smacked me on the leg to make me raise my own foot in and out of the water each time. For $145 you’d think they would allow you to actually relax and lift your leg for you.Used to be able to go to the pool and really enjoy the whole experience more but since “Covid” this is no longer acceptable. The most ridiculous rule.Anyways you’re much better off spending half the money and going to a cheaper salon. Unfortunately this place is not what it used to be.

I absolutely LOVED my RMT, her name is Tina! but the reason I didnt give 5 stars, is beacause I was stuck in traffic and was late 10 mins to my appointment and gave the spa a call and let them know that, I go there and they deducted the 10 mins off of my one hours for that! I think for the money and emergencies, they need to let RMT's be a bit more flexible! I was so unhappy that the receptionist wouldnt be even a bit easy on this!!!

We recently had the pleasure of visiting Absolute Spa and I must say, it was an absolutely fantastic experience! From the moment we walked through the doors, we felt like a VIP. The staff was incredibly welcoming and friendly, and they went out of their way to make sure we felt pampered and comfortable. But what really set Absolute Spa apart was the quality of the manicure and pedicure. Highly skilled and attentive, and she used only the highest quality products to ensure that nails looked and felt amazing.

Great facility and massage. Convenient location for hotel guests. A bit of an issue with the receptionist, however the manager Justine went above and beyond to make things right for us. Will definitely be visiting again on our next trip to Vancouver.

This is hands down the best spa I’ve ever been to. The staff is knowledgeable and professional, and the services are luxurious and effective. If you’re looking to treat yourself to a day of pampering, this is the place to go.

Absolute Spa is a hidden gem! From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and taken care of. The staff is friendly and attentive, and the treatments are customized to your specific needs. I will definitely be back!

1sr off, been to this spa least 5 times in last 7 years precovid. Have loved the gym, fitness room, steam shower before your RMT.The RMT massangers had never been consistent. Here is why I am never going back there after today:1. My husband booked the couple massage RMT via email. We never checked the website since we went there a few times before. we arrived at 10:45am, the new staff there said there is no gym or pool because we are a separate entity. Cannot use it unless you are hotel guests." She also said out appt was 12pm as if I should not show up earlier to use the steam shower that I always used b4. I explained that we always did the gym and shower. She said

I’ve been going to this spa for years and it never disappoints. The atmosphere is peaceful and calming, and the treatments are always done with care and expertise. I always leave feeling like a new person. Highly recommend!
